Azure AD Backup

Copper Contributor

Is it usefull to backup Azure AD Device Objects (and possible to restore them). eg. for retrieval of bitlocker keys. Is it possible for a remote user to login again in an Azure AD joined device after such a restore?

For disaster recovery purposes, we have put many resiliency measures in place to prevent such a thing from occurring. Mark Russinovich goes into detail about how this works here:

In situations where users and objects have been accidentally deleted, there are ways you can restore these:
